Meet Scrabble, the face of our brand new pet-friendly campaign, Paws for a Break.

We know that so many of you wouldn’t dream of going on holiday without your four-legged friends and choose self-catering as it’s the easiest and most flexible way of holidaying with a pet.

Over the coming months we’ll be highlighting pet-friendly holiday cottages (some that even welcome horses!); asking for your recommendations on pet-friendly places to visit and top pet-friendly attractions; and sharing photos of your pets on their holidays. We are also running the Paws for a Break Self-Catering Award 2016/17 – why not nominate your favourite pet-friendly holiday cottage?
